Procurator

Meaning no offense to Shadow and anyone else responsible for MxO Resource, but I hate it when people let sites like these expire. For pity's sake, why?! So what if you don't have time to update it any more? It doesn't cost much to host thi...

People PM Virrago with their nominations, with a reason why the player in question deserves to be profiled. Virrago then has final say on who's chosen. Virrago wrote: Make sure when you pm me the nomination you give me a little background...

As far as I'm concerned, Neo was able to jack in remotely because he had some extra technology in the back of his head, that was probably put there before he was extracted. It may have been given to all podborns and only he could use it, o...

Woohoo! It begins. Congratulations, Shinryu! A very worthy choice and an excellent representative of the Syntaxian Machinists. Thanks for this, Virrago. I can see this is going to be fun.

A few minutes ago I was on Syntax, and there were no NPCs anywhere. No gangs and no NPCs in missions. Other players were standing stock still, and their faction names couldn't be retrieved. It wasn't a normal case of being desync'd from th...

Cool, I didn't know players were being added to this. Thanks for mentioning me, Tenshi! I've got a description of myself, and the three Syntaxian Machinist liaisons. I don't think mine's biased. Procurator - Second-in-command of the Glitch...

Nice work! Though, like you, I can't get into the account any more. Still, the binary translates neatly into an URL: http://operationprospekt.blogspot.com/ And the message found there is... bizarre. Decoding it is a trivial matter, so I wo...

(( The phrase you're looking for is: 'could n't care less.' ))

Me. Well, I don't care what year it is, more the system that's employed. I only hate it being 1999 if it was 1999 last year as well. The concept is so horribly flawed that it cheapens the entire Matrix universe. It's as daft as pew-pew.

[Current date] = [End of the War] + [[Morpheus' guess] - [End of the War]]*[# of iterations] + [Some time for the first two failed versions] So let's say: 2100 + (2199-2100)*6 + 50 = about 2750 at the very least . Using very conservative e...

I really, really, really want it to not be 1999 all the time. That's the worst thought out concept ever. The Matrix only consisting of a city and mountain range was bad enough, but a constantly looping year? Hate, hate, hate... If the W Si...

(( *Glances at the name Incomprehensible.* H'mm. Someone else jumping on the accent bandwagon? Which one's this supposed to be? ))

The Intruder is above the System, beyond it. He can control the Machines and their code as a matter of course. He doesn't give a rat's posterior what our politics are, what we're doing in the Real or what happens in the Matrix. He won't ch...

Heh, yeah, it's my turn to take a break from MxO now. I'm not going for good... I hate leaving threads, and if I actually were leaving I'd make the effort to say t'ra to everyone I know personally. Instead, this post will just serve as a m...

H'mm. This information is moderately sexy. *Dreams up a nice Web-based system of mapping routes to a particular hallway based on someone's current location. Wishes he had the time to do that.*

I beg to differ. What humanity did before the Machines took control of the planet does reflect on today's population. So what if we're created by the Machines? We're still humans, our brains still work in the same way. The only way that we...

Tchah! I did no such thing. The mission NPCs are more than enough to suit my purposes, so there.

Stop it. You're confusing the young players.

For the record, I haven't ever been able to take screenshots of e-mails, nor has anyone else I know.

*Sighs.* That idiot Merv thinks he can get the Intruder on his side. Fat chance.

Thanks Rare! I've already got my MaxDist set at something crazy, but I've recently been annoyed at how slow the camera panning is. I shall see to those setting right away!

F11 for me, as it happens. I still wonder how you manage to get such good shots, though. You must sit there hitting F12 more rapidly than is humanly possible.

So, you can customise the menus depending on whether a target is hostile or friendly? Please, for the love of God, keep Details as the default for non-hostiles.

Procurator wrote: So expect the Image Retrieval any time soon. " /> I take that back. I realised Rarebit could have been referring to any sort of image being uploaded by Virrago, not just ones for Image Retrieval.

I have a sneaking suspicion that Rarebit either has a way to automatically take screenshots every second, or he has some Dev tool to recreate an entire event and take screenshots at his leisure. 'Cos these shots are just too good to be tak...

Uh, the menu-based (and previous default double-click action) method of initiating free-fire or Interlock (depending on your distance from the target) is exactly the same as hitting the + or - keys on your hotbar. If one's broken, so's the...

Nice concepts. But if we are getting some new clothing for the holiday update, I think it's going to be something quite, quite new. I base my assumption in this comment: Rarebit wrote: Well I was too obsessed with trying to get a certain n...

Yurgh, no. Those were the worst Agents in the whole Animatrix.

Hey... That looks pretty good with an outer jacket on. Like a detective.

A lot of Machinists? I find myself hard pressed to name any outside of the Tetragrammaton. Don't worry, I know you were defending him. I, however, am defending my organisation.

Fine, go ahead and delete my post defending him. Sphairo wrote: The generic theme for being a machinist is of course, 'roleplaying like agents'. Uh, no. Only one faction on Syntax does that, and not particularly seriously (not anymore anyw...

Heh, maybe. Although I must admit that for something that seems to suggest alien origins, it's got a remarkable grasp of the English language.

The same reason the previous binary was split up: abstract randomness.

They were probably making an educated guess. Why would anyone below Walrus know how much money MxO had?

Yup. Now to see if it fits into one of the URLs...

I'm very glad we got some good responses to these questions. They may not be perfect in some instances, but they're no worse than what I'd expect. Certainly, anyone thinking MxO's doomed and are about to leave may want to reconsider. Edit:...

Well, all the launcher is doing is telling MxO how you're logging in. MxO then makes the decision as to whether to drop you in the loading area, your last hardline or where you typed /jackout. All I was saying is that the behaviour you des...

Woah. I've been spotted before, but my operator's never said anything when it happened.

The binary in the image is correct. I used Reeverb's plain text version of it, corrected a couple of mistakes he'd made in transcribing it, then translated it.

That's the same behaviour as using the normal MxO launcher but with your username specified in the shortcut (i.e. "C:\The Matrix Online\launcher.exe" -user myUsername -pwd myPassword -char Procurator ). Was there somewhere in the Station l...

Decoding the binary returns http://s183.photobucket.com/albums/...=The_Sphere.flv But Reeverb managed to find this: http://s183.photobucket.com/albums/...eOriginal-1.flv

The squares don't hold an exact number of bytes. For example, the 'give' square has 19 bytes (creating what you've posted) and 3 bits. Use those extra bits in the 'me' square. The next letter is, as one would predict, 'c'. I'm not doing th...

I don't know how the lists of actions are constructed, but by the looks of things both NPCs and players share the same system, so making Details the default for one makes it default for the other. Hopefully they are constructed differently...

I think the fact that you've lost the default free-fire command by double-clicking on reds is deliberate. I just checked an even earlier thread and found this: Rarebit wrote: Also inconvenient when you accidentally attack a red you were tr...

You're right on some aspects. 1% may reject the system, but the terms of the Truce allowed those 1% - and only those 1% - to be freed by Zion. Now that awakenings are no longer allowed, Zion may not participate in this extraction process....

*Raises an eyebrow.* Crikey, you didn't half make a load of stuff up there. If a Bluepill has already taken a red pill, I can't say what happens to them - but they certainly aren't a Bluepill anymore at that point, so are irrelevant to the...

It's called law enforcement. We're protecting the Machines' territory. Zionites are trespassing out of spite and sheer pig-headed bravado, and we're responding with the force we threatened to use. The definition of murder is up for debate,...
